The Study |
The Study Includes: The picture in the gilded frame is purchased. The picture in the wooden frame is detail from a Signac painting from the French Impressionist period which I framed. The leather furniture was fabric which had gotten faded and dusty. I painted over it with terra cotta paint, but the paint kept soaking into the fabric and the print bled through. To prevent this from happening again I sprayed it with polyurethane. I liked the look of it so much I repainted once more and sprayed polyurethane again for a finish. It looks just like leather. The cup in the corner cabinet was something my grandmother brought back from Portugal, a gift from the hotel where she stayed. The rug is a finished piece of fabric my grandmother liked. The venetian blinds were purchased and then painted white. The wallpaper is red text paper. The furniture: Chippendale Slat Front Desk - c. 1750 Chippendale Hanging Shelf - c. 1760 Chippendale Wing Chair - c. 1750-90 Corner Cupboard - c. 1730-50 Sofa - unknown Hepplewhite Serpentine Table - c. 1780-1800 Jefferson Bookcase - unknown Chair - unknown |
